[XML-SIG] Conditions for using XLink

[Dinu Gherman]

Hi,

I'm trying to read XML files with FromXmlFile() that contain XLink attri-
butes like this: <foo xlink:href="#bar"/>. This results in the following
traceback below. I'm using the following environment:

  OS name: posix, platform: darwin
  Python version: 2.2.0 final 0
  PyXML version: 0.7
  4Suite version: 0.11.1

Is there anything else needed to work with XLink or do I need to upgrade 
something?

Thanks,

Dinu
